More in-depth political analysis is coming this week, but for today, I’m just going to reproduce some twitter poetry like a lazy bastard:
Obama’s 1st 100 Days in <100 Characters
Like watching The Wire, seems slow
to start, but given time you realize
its much smarter than you.
The Republican Party in <100 Characters
Like watching 24, seems like an over the top parody of real life,
and given time,
turns out it is.
Bank bailouts in <100 Characters
Just like Star Wars prequels,
we’re paying shitty rich guys to ruin
all of our childhood dreams.
U.S. Torture in <100 Characters
Like The Hills, suggests world
without justice, as morally bankrupt acts
erode Western civilization.
And a fifth blog-only bonus:
Human Impact on the Earth, in <100 Characters
Like LOST, explosive success
had unexpected effect on future plotlines,
and we’re all in suspense.
